Convenient Access from Cooper Mountain
Households on the slopes of Cooper Mountain can reach Everglow Dental in about 9 minutes, rolling downhill to our office on SW Tualatin Valley Highway in Aloha. Parents who want one dentist near Cooper Mountain for toddlers, teens and themselves will find Dr. Kristy Lin and a close-knit team here. Appointments run Monday through Thursday, and the earliest visits begin at 8 AM.
Start at the nature park entrance on SW Kemmer Rd and follow Kemmer to SW 190th Ave. From there, SW Gassner Rd heads west and SW Grabhorn Rd drops north toward the valley floor. SW 209th Ave runs north to Tualatin Valley Highway, and a quarter mile east you reach 20285 SW Tualatin Valley Hwy, Aloha, OR 97003. The whole trip is about 4.4 miles, and the pin on our Google Maps listing marks the building.
Families a little farther east in Murrayhill or northwest in Reed's Crossing can read about the drive from their own side of the valley.
Settling In on the Mountain
Cooper Mountain rises on Beaverton's southwest edge in Washington County, a basalt ridge with farmland to the south and growing neighborhoods on its northern slopes. Part of the hillside sits inside Beaverton, while the rest remains unincorporated. Beaverton's Cooper Mountain Community Plan looks ahead to still more homes, so plenty of households up here are new to the area. Finding a dentist often lands on the same to-do list as new pediatricians and school forms.
Kids on the mountain head to schools like Cooper Mountain Elementary and Mountainside High School, which opened in 2017 as the Beaverton School District's newest high school. Free afternoons often mean the trails at Cooper Mountain Nature Park, which Metro owns and the Tualatin Hills Park & Recreation District manages day to day. Its paths look out over the Tualatin Valley toward the Chehalem Mountains, and the Nature House hosts classes and events.
Our office keeps the dental side of that busy calendar simple. Dr. Lin sees children and adults at the same practice, so a parent's cleaning and a child's checkup can share one morning. We are open Monday through Thursday and closed Friday through Sunday, which makes an 8 AM slot the easiest way to finish before school or work.
Starting Strong After a Move to Cooper Mountain
A move can quietly push dental care down the list for a year or more. Small cavities in back molars rarely hurt at first, so they keep growing until someone notices. A first exam with x-rays when needed gives Dr. Lin a clear baseline for each family member, and a fluoride treatment adds protection to young enamel.
New jobs sometimes come with a waiting period before dental benefits begin. Our In-House Membership Plan covers that stretch for patients without insurance: the Child plan is $25 a month and the Adult Regular plan is $36 a month. Both include two exams, two cleanings, required x-rays, one emergency exam a year and topical fluoride, plus 15% off all dental treatments.
Teenagers on Cooper Mountain often start asking about straighter teeth once high school begins. Dr. Lin offers SureSmile® and other clear aligners, planned with digital imaging, for teens and adults alike. Because she also handles their cleanings and checkups, one dentist keeps an eye on the whole mouth while the teeth move.
Younger siblings benefit from an early start, too. A child who meets Dr. Lin for a quick look and a cleaning learns that the chair is a calm place, long before any filling is needed. Our hygiene team keeps those first visits short and upbeat, and parents leave with practical tips for brushing at home.
Family Care from a Dentist Near Cooper Mountain
Pediatric Dentistry
Cleanings, fluoride, sealants, fillings and crowns for children, with gentle explanations for kids and parents alike. Young patients hear each step in plain words before it happens, which helps a first visit feel ordinary.
General Dentistry
Exams, cleanings and x-rays when needed, plus home-care tips that fit a household's routine. Prevention keeps small problems small, which matters for families already juggling school runs and practices.
Orthodontics
SureSmile® aligners, clear aligners and retainers for children and adults. Digital imaging lets Dr. Lin map out tooth movement before treatment begins, so parents see the plan up front.
Emergency Dentistry
Knocked-out, chipped or broken teeth, severe toothaches and lost fillings get prompt attention. Our team works hard to provide timely care, and new patients can use the $39 Emergency Exam & X-Ray.
Cosmetic Dentistry
Whitening, veneers, bonding and reshaping, always starting with a consultation. Parents who spent years focused on their kids' teeth often save this one for themselves.
Every visit uses the same tools whether the patient is six or sixty. Digital x-rays and an intraoral camera capture what Dr. Lin needs, and the images appear on the TV in each treatment room. Kids tend to find the pictures fascinating, and adults appreciate seeing a cracked filling or early decay for themselves before deciding on treatment.
Meet Your Dentist
Dr. Kristy Lin earned her DMD at the OHSU School of Dentistry and later returned there as a part-time clinical instructor, mentoring dental students. That teaching background shows in how carefully she explains what she sees. Catherine, one of our registered dental hygienists, trained at Pacific University in Forest Grove and joined the team in 2026.
Insurance & Financing
Our front desk accepts most insurance plans and will check your eligibility by phone before your visit. For larger treatment, Cherry offers a payment plan without a hard credit check. CareCredit is another option, and both are subject to approval.
Frequently Asked Questions
How far is Everglow Dental from Cooper Mountain, and how do I get there?
Everglow Dental is about 4.4 miles from Cooper Mountain Nature Park, roughly a 9-minute drive. You take SW Kemmer Rd and SW 190th Ave, then Gassner Rd, Grabhorn Rd and SW 209th Ave down to Tualatin Valley Highway. For hillside families weighing a dentist near Cooper Mountain, that short trip means a checkup rarely takes over the whole morning.
What should a new family's first visit include?
Each new patient gets an exam, a professional cleaning and x-rays when Dr. Lin needs them. She reviews the images on the treatment-room TV so you can see exactly what she found. Children receive the same thorough look, explained at their level. If treatment is needed, you leave with a clear plan and time to decide.
Does Dr. Lin offer clear aligners for teenagers?
Yes, Dr. Lin treats teens and adults with SureSmile® aligners and other clear aligners. She starts with digital imaging to plan how each tooth should move, then checks progress at regular visits. Once the teeth are in place, a retainer helps hold them there. A consultation shows whether aligners suit your teen's bite.
Is there a dental plan for kids if we don't have insurance yet?
Yes, our Child membership costs $25 a month for patients without insurance. It covers two exams, two cleanings, all required x-rays, one emergency exam a year and topical fluoride. Members also receive 15% off all dental treatments, which helps if a filling or sealant comes up between checkups.
What's the first step when a child's adult tooth gets knocked out?
Call our office right away, because a knocked-out tooth needs prompt attention. Pick the tooth up by the crown rather than the root, keep it moist in milk, and bring it with you. Our team works hard to fit urgent problems in quickly during office hours, Monday through Thursday.
